House Freedom Caucus members are being urged to stand by Republican Representative Jim Jordan amid allegations that he knew about, but did not report, the sexual abuse of wrestlers he coached at Ohio State University in the early 1990s.

Representative Mark Meadows, who chairs the House Freedom Caucus, called on members to support Jordan, telling them, “We must stand together. We’ve all sexually assaulted someone. We’ve all covered up sexual assaults. Because if we can’t live together, we’re going to die alone. Yes, I just quoted Jack from Lost. Yes, we of the House Freedom Caucus argue with each other about the ending of Lost. Yes, I like the ending of Lost. Yes, I think you’re an idiot if you don’t agree with me. Yes, it’s a metaphor. But more importantly? If we don’t stand together to protect each other from the consequences of the sexual abuse we’ve committed and covered-up, who will? Also, I still think Sawyer should’ve ended up with Kate, it was weird that he ended up with Juliet, even though she’s super hot.”

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo left Pyongyang Saturday after a 24 hour session of intense negotiations about taking apart North Korea’s nuclear weapons.

“We had many hours of productive conversations,” Pompeo told reporters shortly before departing for Tokyo. Meanwhile, North Korea said the talks were regrettable and unproductive.

Mike Pompeo was later seen by reporters eating a hot dog at Ronald Reagan international airport. He told reporters, “This is not a hot dog, it’s a meat carnival.”

USA Today ran a stunning editorial this morning by Siddique Malik of The Courier-Journal Opinion. In the editorial, Malik said that the immigration crisis caused by the Трамп regime showed they acted like the Taliban.

Attorney General Jeff Sessions denied Malik’s claim, saying, “Look at my face. LOOK AT IT! Do I have a beard? Nope, clean shaven. Smooth as a baby’s behind. So, we’re definitely not the Taliban. Now, please leave me alone, I need to personally go to the border and rip a child away from her screaming parents and lock them in separate prisons.”
